The ret_stack should not be accessed directly via the curr_ret_stack
variable on the task_struct. This is because the ret_stack is going to be
converted into a series of longs and not an array of ret_stack structures.
The way that a ret_stack should be retrieved is via the
ftrace_graph_get_ret_stack structure, but it needs to be documented on how
to use it.

The function ftrace_replace_code() is the ftrace engine that does the
work to modify all the nops into the calls to the function callback in
all the functions being traced.
The generic version which is normally called from stop machine, but an
architecture can implement a non stop machine version and still use the
generic ftrace_replace_code(). When an architecture does this,
ftrace_replace_code() may be called from a schedulable context, where
it can allow the code to be preemptible, and schedule out.
In order to allow an architecture to make ftrace_replace_code()
schedulable, a new command flag is added called:
FTRACE_MAY_SLEEP
Which can be or'd to the command that is passed to
ftrace_modify_all_code() that calls ftrace_replace_code() and will have
it call cond_resched() in the loop that modifies the nops into the
calls to the ftrace trampolines.

Add a generic method to remove event from dynamic event
list. This is same as other system under ftrace. You
just need to pass the event name with '!', e.g.
# echo p:new_grp/new_event _do_fork > dynamic_events
This creates an event, and
# echo '!p:new_grp/new_event _do_fork' > dynamic_events
Or,
# echo '!p:new_grp/new_event' > dynamic_events
will remove new_grp/new_event event.
Note that this doesn't check the event prefix (e.g. "p:")
strictly, because the "group/event" name must be unique.

synthetic event is using synth_event_mutex for protecting

locks as below order.
event_trigger_write(event_mutex)
->trigger_process_regex(trigger_cmd_mutex)
->event_hist_trigger_func(synth_event_mutex)
On the other hand, synthetic event creation and deletion paths
call trace_add_event_call() and trace_remove_event_call()
which acquires event_mutex. In that case, if we keep the
synth_event_mutex locked while registering/unregistering synthetic
events, its dependency will be inversed.
To avoid this issue, current synthetic event is using a 2 phase
process to create/delete events. For example, it searches existing
events under synth_event_mutex to check for event-name conflicts, and
unlocks synth_event_mutex, then registers a new event under event_mutex
locked. Finally, it locks synth_event_mutex and tries to add the
new event to the list. But it can introduce complexity and a chance
for name conflicts.
To solve this simpler, this introduces trace_add_event_call_nolock()
and trace_remove_event_call_nolock() which don't acquire
event_mutex inside. synthetic event can lock event_mutex before
synth_event_mutex to solve the lock dependency issue simpler.

Dan Carpenter reviewed the trace_stack.c code and figured he found an off by
one bug.
"From reviewing the code, it seems possible for
stack_trace_max.nr_entries to be set to .max_entries and in that case we
would be reading one element beyond the end of the stack_dump_trace[]
array. If it's not set to .max_entries then the bug doesn't affect
runtime."
Although it looks to be the case, it is not. Because we have:
static unsigned long stack_dump_trace[STACK_TRACE_ENTRIES+1] =
{ [0 ... (STACK_TRACE_ENTRIES)] = ULONG_MAX };
struct stack_trace stack_trace_max = {
.max_entries = STACK_TRACE_ENTRIES - 1,
.entries = &stack_dump_trace[0],
};
And:
stack_trace_max.nr_entries = x;
for (; x < i; x++)
stack_dump_trace[x] = ULONG_MAX;
Even if nr_entries equals max_entries, indexing with it into the
stack_dump_trace[] array will not overflow the array. But if it is the case,
the second part of the conditional that tests stack_dump_trace[nr_entries]
to ULONG_MAX will always be true.
By applying Dan's patch, it removes the subtle aspect of it and makes the if
conditional slightly more efficient.

The tracefs file set_graph_function is used to only function graph functions
that are listed in that file (or all functions if the file is empty). The
way this is implemented is that the function graph tracer looks at every
function, and if the current depth is zero and the function matches
something in the file then it will trace that function. When other functions
are called, the depth will be greater than zero (because the original
function will be at depth zero), and all functions will be traced where the
depth is greater than zero.
The issue is that when a function is first entered, and the handler that
checks this logic is called, the depth is set to zero. If an interrupt comes
in and a function in the interrupt handler is traced, its depth will be
greater than zero and it will automatically be traced, even if the original
function was not. But because the logic only looks at depth it may trace
interrupts when it should not be.
The recent design change of the function graph tracer to fix other bugs
caused the depth to be zero while the function graph callback handler is
being called for a longer time, widening the race of this happening. This
bug was actually there for a longer time, but because the race window was so
small it seldom happened. The Fixes tag below is for the commit that widen
the race window, because that commit belongs to a series that will also help
fix the original bug.

The function graph profiler uses the ret_stack to store the "subtime" and
reuse it by nested functions and also on the return. But the current logic
has the profiler callback called before the ret_stack is updated, and it is
just modifying the ret_stack that will later be allocated (it's just lucky
that the "subtime" is not touched when it is allocated).
This could also cause a crash if we are at the end of the ret_stack when
this happens.
By reversing the order of the allocating the ret_stack and then calling the
callbacks attached to a function being traced, the ret_stack entry is no
longer used before it is allocated.

In the past, curr_ret_stack had two functions. One was to denote the depth
of the call graph, the other is to keep track of where on the ret_stack the
data is used. Although they may be slightly related, there are two cases
where they need to be used differently.
The one case is that it keeps the ret_stack data from being corrupted by an
interrupt coming in and overwriting the data still in use. The other is just
to know where the depth of the stack currently is.
The function profiler uses the ret_stack to save a "subtime" variable that
is part of the data on the ret_stack. If curr_ret_stack is modified too
early, then this variable can be corrupted.
The "max_depth" option, when set to 1, will record the first functions going
into the kernel. To see all top functions (when dealing with timings), the
depth variable needs to be lowered before calling the return hook. But by
lowering the curr_ret_stack, it makes the data on the ret_stack still being
used by the return hook susceptible to being overwritten.
Now that there's two variables to handle both cases (curr_ret_depth), we can
move them to the locations where they can handle both cases.

Currently, the depth of the ret_stack is determined by curr_ret_stack index.
The issue is that there's a race between setting of the curr_ret_stack and
calling of the callback attached to the return of the function.
Commit 03274a3ffb ("tracing/fgraph: Adjust fgraph depth before calling

setting of the curr_ret_stack, even stating that it was safe to do so, when
in fact, it was the reason there was a barrier() there (yes, I should have
commented that barrier()).
Not only does the curr_ret_stack keep track of the current call graph depth,
it also keeps the ret_stack content from being overwritten by new data.
The function profiler, uses the "subtime" variable of ret_stack structure
and by moving the curr_ret_stack, it allows for interrupts to use the same
structure it was using, corrupting the data, and breaking the profiler.
To fix this, there needs to be two variables to handle the call stack depth
and the pointer to where the ret_stack is being used, as they need to change
at two different locations.

In preparation to enabling -Wimplicit-fallthrough, mark switch cases
where we are expecting to fall through.
Notice that in this particular case, I replaced the code comments with
a proper "fall through" annotation, which is what GCC is expecting
to find.

Replace the whole switch statement with a for loop. This makes the
code clearer and easy to read.
This also addresses the following Coverity warnings:

Since commit ad67b74d24 ("printk: hash addresses printed with %p"),
all pointers printed with %p are printed with hashed addresses
instead of real addresses in order to avoid leaking addresses in
dmesg and syslog. But this applies to kdb too, with is unfortunate:
Entering kdb (current=0x(ptrval), pid 329) due to Keyboard Entry
kdb> ps
15 sleeping system daemon (state M) processes suppressed,
use 'ps A' to see all.

The whole purpose of kdb is to debug, and for debugging real addresses
need to be known. In addition, data displayed by kdb doesn't go into
dmesg.
This patch replaces all %p by %px in kdb in order to display real
addresses.

On a powerpc 8xx, 'btc' fails as follows:
Entering kdb (current=0x(ptrval), pid 282) due to Keyboard Entry
kdb> btc
btc: cpu status: Currently on cpu 0
Available cpus: 0
kdb_getarea: Bad address 0x0
when booting the kernel with 'debug_boot_weak_hash', it fails as well
Entering kdb (current=0xba99ad80, pid 284) due to Keyboard Entry
kdb> btc
btc: cpu status: Currently on cpu 0
Available cpus: 0
kdb_getarea: Bad address 0xba99ad80
On other platforms, Oopses have been observed too, see
https://github.com/linuxppc/linux/issues/139
This is due to btc calling 'btt' with %p pointer as an argument.
This patch replaces %p by %px to get the real pointer value as
expected by 'btt'

A ~10% regression has been reported for UnixBench's execl throughput
test by Aaron Lu and Ye Xiaolong:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/10/30/765
That test is pretty simple, it does a "recursive" execve() syscall on the
same binary. Starting from the syscall, this sequence is possible:
do_execve()
do_execveat_common()
__do_execve_file()
sched_exec()
select_task_rq_fair() <==| Task already enqueued
find_idlest_cpu()
find_idlest_group()
capacity_spare_wake() <==| Functions not called from
cpu_util_wake() | the wakeup path
which means we can end up calling cpu_util_wake() not only from the
"wakeup path", as its name would suggest. Indeed, the task doing an
execve() syscall is already enqueued on the CPU we want to get the
cpu_util_wake() for.
The estimated utilization for a CPU computed in cpu_util_wake() was
written under the assumption that function can be called only from the
wakeup path. If instead the task is already enqueued, we end up with a
utilization which does not remove the current task's contribution from
the estimated utilization of the CPU.
This will wrongly assume a reduced spare capacity on the current CPU and
increase the chances to migrate the task on execve.
The regression is tracked down to:
commit d519329f72 ("sched/fair: Update util_est only on util_avg updates")
because in that patch we turn on by default the UTIL_EST sched feature.
However, the real issue is introduced by:
commit f9be3e5961 ("sched/fair: Use util_est in LB and WU paths")
Let's fix this by ensuring to always discount the task estimated
utilization from the CPU's estimated utilization when the task is also
the current one. The same benchmark of the bug report, executed on a
dual socket 40 CPUs Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2690 v2 @ 3.00GHz machine,
reports these "Execl Throughput" figures (higher the better):
mainline : 48136.5 lps
mainline+fix : 55376.5 lps
which correspond to a 15% speedup.
Moreover, since {cpu_util,capacity_spare}_wake() are not really only
used from the wakeup path, let's remove this ambiguity by using a better
matching name: {cpu_util,capacity_spare}_without().
Since we are at that, let's also improve the existing documentation.

check_dl_overrun() is used to send a SIGXCPU to users that asked to be
informed when a SCHED_DEADLINE runtime overruns occur.
The function is called by check_thread_timers() already, so the call in
check_process_timers() is redundant/wrong (even though harmless).
Remove it.
